Out in Manurewa

06/04/2026

With ANZAC Day just around the corner, I’ve been reflecting on a special moment here in Manurewa.

At Manurewa Central School, it wasn’t about wreaths — it was about our students laying crosses before the cenotaph. Each one placed carefully, in order of the soldiers who gave their lives. You could feel the meaning in it. Every cross represented a name, a story, a whānau.

For our tamariki, it helped bring the history to life in a real and grounded way.

What stood out most was the respect. The way our young people took their time, understood the moment, and honoured it properly.

That’s Manurewa. That’s how we remember.

Lest we forget.
